sorry its been awhile

whats new here? not much. ive been running again. slowly but surely. ive also been doing aerobics, and weight training and swimming and also rach and i have been taking walks at night for about an hour.

school is going ok. its busy. im tired. however our new students are cute. we have a class of 3 year olds. last week was their first class. we all expected the worst: crying. but, it turned out to be a great class. so easy and fun. they could do everything. but we just aim for repetition and having fun.

i got an iphone. im not sure how i like it. maybe 60% like it, 40% hate it. the battery life is short. and i have to use to different mail systems to mail people with the same phone company and different phone companies. and sometimes its just too much. but i do have some cool applications and i am learning to like it more and more. im sure in a few months, ill like it a lot!

last saturday was a busy day. i had french class from 10-1. then i headed over to cooking class from 2-4 with my friend tomoko. we made gyoza, tomato and egg something and pork rice. it was really good. then i met hiro and we went to get my new phone. then we met some of his friends and went to a game center and had a good time!

sunday i went strawberry picking after church with my friends from church. then i came home and took a nice long nap!

now its tuesday. and not just any tuesday. its the tuesday before my 26th birthday. wow. on thursday, ill be 26! i am ready. 25 was a year of ups and downs. having the herniated disk, not being able to run. getting sick, anemia. however i did have the best thing ever happen as well. hiro. so that cancels out the bad stuff for sure.

but im looking forward to 26.

well off to get ready to go to the gym. have a good day!
